This little interview with VIRGILL OF TRSI was done by RUFFERTO/ADDONIC... ADDONIC: Hi Virgill! I'd like to do an interview with you! Is that alright? VIRGILL: Yes, of course! Let's go! ADDONIC: OK, please introduce yourself! VIRGILL: My name is Jochen Feldkoetter and I'm 17 years old. I'll become 18 this april.... Actually I'm a musician in T.R.S.I.! ADDONIC: Which hardware do you own? VIRGILL: I've got an Amiga 500 with 1 MB RAM, a second drive and a TV set. ADDONIC: I guess you need some synthesizers to do your high quality music... Do you have any? Which ones? VIRGILL: Ofcoz I own some synthesizers...: Korg M1 Workstation, Roland Jupiter 6 and another one (Ed: I don't remember its name - sorry?). ADDONIC: Have you been in any other groups before ²mTRSI ? VIRGILL: There are only two crews worth being mentioned: ²mPanic and Coma... ! The guys in Coma were very lame and I'm also a bit angry about Panic. They didn't credit me for the music in their demo '1000 Wasted Dreams'. That's not nice, eh? ADDONIC: No, not at all!! We all know, that you are a very good musician, but anyway... do you have any idols in the scene? VIRGILL: Hmmmm... No, I don't think so....! ADDONIC: Why did you leave ²mComa ? VIRGILL: Well, as you have probably read in ²mMCDisk Issue 3 , three coders left COMA! I think they were the best ones and I wanted to do some music for their demos. I wasn't interested in composing for McDisk only, so I decided to leave... ADDONIC: And why did you join TRSI? I think until now they weren't very active in the demo scene. VIRGILL: They have gained some really good coders lately, so they will pro- bably get a bit more active with demos. ADDONIC: Anyway, will you continue doing music for McDisk? VIRGILL: No, I won't. Coma Germany has kicked out all lamers and built up new division of ALCATRAZ , so McDisk will be continued as an Alca- traz production. ADDONIC: Most of your tunes sound a bit like reggae... Do you like reggae? VIRGILL: Yes, I do! I like Bob Marley, but also Jimi Hendrix and some Pop- Music... ADDONIC: OK, a standard question: What's your favourite: Coder, Musician, GFXer, Demo, Diskmag...? VIRGILL: Coder: Chaos/Sanity Musician: Heatbeat/Carillion GFXer: Cougar/Sanity, J.O.E./TRSI Demo: Elysium from Sanity (Jester did a really great tune!) Diskmag: I.C.E. from Cytax ADDONIC: What's your opinion about crackers? Do you think they are lamers? VIRGILL: Well, I don't want to have anything to do with crackers. Some time ago the police visited me and I think it's too dangerous. But it's not right to handle them as lamers. Some of them are really skilled in coding. ADDONIC: Ok, which program do you use to compose? VIRGILL: Of course the one and only PROTRACKER... ! ADDONIC: A rather strange question: What about the name 'Daniela'? VIRGILL: Oooh! She was a former girlfriend of mine, but I left her (Sabine rulez! Hehe). ADDONIC: Hehe.... Hmm, some time ago you entered the EUROCHART ? Was that a great surprise or did you expect that in any way? VIRGILL: Well, I got many letters saying 'You are a great musician!!', so I thought something like this would happen in some time, but I was surprised anyway, but who's not, when he enters the chart?? ADDONIC: OK, thats's it for now! Do you want to send out any greetings to the end? VIRGILL: Yes, greets go to C.O.N.S. of Panic and Jester! ADDONIC: Thanks for the interview, bye...!! --- Rufferto of Addonic --- Virgill is no longer a member of TRSI. He joined SANITY!
